Hi George,
your reply to mine contained a plain-text file attachment of
(roughly) 8MB. Not only does it hang up my email reader (probably
because it recognizes the files as text and tries to display it), but
you also sent it to the entire list, resulting in 8MB being sent to
around 1600 people.
Please, whenever you have larger files, only send it to an
individual, *never* to a mailing list unless specifically asked to do
so.
Second, whenever you have large text files to attach, *always*
compress them. This will typically save 70% of the bandwidth being
used for transmission.
What I could recover from your file looked like the first element is
unique. It also looks like the last 4 elements are the accession of
the target sequence (presumably of a GenBank entry - presumably maize
BAC clones?) and the start and end coordinates and the strand.
All of display_id, accession_number, and primary_id must be 40 chars
or less (sorry for not pointing that out right away), so you may use
the first element for all three of them. You could also use some
combination of the other elements to construct a more meaningful
display_id, just don't exceed 40 chars.
Setting primary_id() to undef should definitely work. If it doesn't
you may be using an old version of Bioperl. You should be using
release 1.5.2, or at least 1.5.x. It's possible that the 1.4 release
still had the bug of not allowing the setting to undef, please
upgrade if that's the version you're using.
Let me know if you still have problems with getting this to work.
